i was hoping we`d get all the individual proposals, but hey if two or three of them want to do it together i`m all for that
Reading 22 individual proposals would get old (and boring) fast.
Kiara and Maddie's were spontaneous and nice to do (and read, I guess). Doing 20 extra ones would look like a chore for the MC (and somewhat forced in the way of him thinking "I need to propose to everyone, or the non-proposed girls will get offended" instead of something out of the moment).
Some of the girls can take the initiative, too. And they have been talking about the rings since Kiara's proposal.

I replayed Season 1, which I downloaded from Steam. My final save from S1 won't load in S2. Since I changed some of my choices, I wanted to replay all the seasons.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 284, in script
python:
ScriptError: could not find label 'start'.

The current Season 2 isn't compatible with Steam Season 1 saves right now, since Steam Season 1 changes a lot of variables (like being able to rename Eileen, Scarlett, Saira, Simone, Samantha, and Megan).
To replay the rest of the seasons, Start a new game in Season 2 and answer the questionnaire, please.
Although the customized names for those girls aren't implemented yet in Season 2, the game is playable through the questionnaire.

Now that 0.28 is released, I will start to adapt Season 2 to Steam standards and make it compatible with Season 1 Steam version.

Come on, you know you could make them spicy and not boring.
I know, but that would delay too much the trip to Aruba. The MC can't propose to Lisa on the first date, for example, or to Amanda even before the first date (which will be in Aruba).
It would be unrealistic and would look like "I propose now because I don't know when I will have another chance to do it before going to Aruba. And I have 20 more girls to propose to."
It won't look like something out of his heart, but like a checklist.
If the chance arises, he will do it, but not as a task to complete before Aruba. He isn't in a hurry to do it. For him, Aruba is only a (relative) pause, not a break point, so he plans to propose to every girl when the moment comes, but not necessarily before Aruba (or before the end of the game).
Remember that, for him, the end of the game doesn't exist. It's only another day in his life. So, he doesn't need to "finish everything" before the end of the game (or before the trip to Aruba).

In that regard, I dislike slice-of-life stories that tie up every loose end at the end of the story (unless the characters die). They still have a lot to live and they need things to do. They don't "start from scratch" the day after the last chapter. Some of the loose ends, maybe, will be loose at the end of the game and will be tied up in the epilogue (and the epilogue, perhaps, creates some more loose ends). I feel it's more realistic, especially if the loose ends aren't big things.

It seems to me that in S1 of Steam, the scenes where I lend my laptop to Debbie and where Debbie brings it back to me are no longer activated.

I proposed to Lisa the moment i saw her in the airport.
